Definitions
- This invention relates to an intake manifold for an internal combustion engine and, in particular, to a multi-cylinder, in-line type engine having at two intake valves in each cylinder.
- an intake manifold generally includes a distributing chamber which is parallel to the row of cylinders and one intake pipe branching from the chamber for each cylinder.
- each intake pipe is connected to a cylinder having a plurality of intake valves arranged in a non-circular combination.
- the cross section of the intake port of each cylinder having two intake valves is preferably in a shape which unites two adjacent branching passages within the cylinder head to which each intake valve is connected and therefore the intake port is in a substantially oval shape with the major axis disposed in alignment with the row of cylinders.
- the cross section of the end portion of each intake pipe connecting to the intake port must be oval with the major axis also disposed in alignment with the row of cylinders.
- each intake pipe is made an oval with the major axis thereof disposed in alignment with the row of cylinders and this configuration extends over the entire length of the intake pipe, the length of the distributing chamber is increased and, in turn, the length of the intake system which includes a throttle body attached to the longitudinal end portion of the chamber becomes greater than the length of the row of cylinders of the engine whereby the overall length of the engine is unnecessarily enlarged in size.
- an object of this invention to provide an intake manifold having a novel shape and design which provides an efficient air induction system in a compact and light weight arrangement.
- Another object of this invention is to provide an intake manifold with intake pipes having oval openings to match the oval intake ports for each cylinder having two intake valves and progressively varying the shape of the intake pipe cross section to minimize the overall length of the manifold.
- a still further object of this invention is to provide such an intake manifold wherein the upstream end of each intake pipe has a funnel shape opening into the distribution chamber and the funnel shape flares toward the engine to minimize the overall size of the manifold.
- Still another object of this invention is to provide such an intake manifold with varying wall thicknesses wherein thinner walls are provided remote from the engine to minimize the weight and to locate the center of gravity as close as possible to the engine.
- FIG. 1 is a top plan view of an engine having the intake manifold of this invention.
- FIG. 2 is an end elevation view of the engine of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the intake manifold of this invention separate from an engine.
- FIG. 4 is a sectional elevation view of the intake manifold taken substantial on the line IV--IV of FIG. 3.
- FIG. 5 is a side elevation view of the intake manifold taken substantially in the direction of the arrow V of FIG. 4.
- This invention is shown and will be described in connection with a four cylinder engine with the intake valves for each cylinder arranged in a line along one side of the engine although it will readily appear to those skilled in the art that the invention is also applicable to other internal combustion engine arrangements. Further, the engine will be described as it would be positioned in a front wheel drive vehicle with the crankshaft extending laterally of the vehicle whereby in the top plan view of FIG. 1 the rear of the vehicle is to the right where the intake manifold is located.
- the four cylinder engine 1 includes an in-line row of four cylinders with each cylinder 2 having two intake valves 3 arranged at the rear portion and two exhaust valves 4 arranged at the front portion of the engine.
- An intake manifold 5 is provided at the back of the engine 1 and an exhaust manifold 6 is provided on the front side.
- the intake manifold 5 includes a distribution chamber 7 which is disposed longitudinally with respect to the row of cylinders, namely in the lateral direction of the vehicle, an intake pipe 8 connected to each cylinder from the chamber 7, and a flange 9 on the end of each intake pipe 8.
- Each flange 9 of the manifold 5 is connected to the back of the cylinder head of the engine 1 and each intake pipe 8 opens into the intake port of each cylinder 2 on the back surface of the cylinder head.
- a throttle body 10 is attached to the open end of the chamber 7, so that air from an air cleaner (not shown) is supplied to the chamber 7 through the throttle valve within the throttle body 10.
- the fuel is injected into the air which is channelled from the chamber 7 into each intake pipe 8 from a fuel injection valve 11 mounted in a bore 11a on the forward end portion of each intake pipe 8.
- a fuel supply manifold 12 is connected to and supplies fuel to the four injection valves 11 and that fuel supply manifold is supported on bosses 12a on intake manifold 5.
- the fuel-air mixture is introduced to two intake valves 3 provided for each cylinder 2 through the intake port 2a of each cylinder 2 and the branching passages which connect to the intake port 2a from each of the two intake valves 3.
- a supporting member 13 extends between and is bolted onto both the engine 1 and the intake manifold 5 for bracing and supporting the intake manifold 5 from below.
- the cross section of the forward end portion 8a of each intake pipe 8 connecting to the intake port 2a of each cylinder 2 is made substantially in the shape of an oval with the major axis thereof disposed in alignment with the row of cylinders, as is shown in FIG. 5.
- the cross section of the rear end portion 8b of each intake pipe 8 connecting to the chamber 7 is substantially oval with the minor axis disposed in the lateral direction, as is shown in FIG. 3.
- the cross section of the middle portion of each intake pipe 8 is substantially circular, as shown by the phantom lines 8c, and the cross section is gradually varied in shape from that middle portion toward the forward end portion and the rear end portion, respectively.
- the intake port 2a is preferably in the shape of an oval with the major axis disposed parallel to the row of cylinders and which corresponds to the oval forward end portion 8a of each intake pipe 8.
- each intake pipe 8 is bent substantially into an L-shape along a vertical plane including the major axis of the cross sectional oval of rear end portion 8b and the dimension of the major axis of the cross section is gradually increased in the direction of the inner curve of the bent portion, namely in the direction of the engine 1, toward the opening end which connects to the distribution chamber 7, whereby the rear end portion 8b is in the shape of an air funnel with the sectional area increasing at 8d at a comparatively large rate toward the chamber 7.
- Another feature or characteristic of this invention is in integrally casting the intake manifold 5 with varying wall thicknesses to achieve specific desirable results.
- the intake pipes 8 extend forwardly from the lower portion of the distribution chamber 7 such as to be bent into a substantially L-shape.
- the body of the intake manifold 5 is divided into a portion A, which is the lower wall of the straight portion at the end of each intake pipe 8, a portion B, which is the outer wall of the bent portion of each intake pipe 8 and connecting to the portion A, a portion C, which leads from the portion B extending over the entire peripheral wall of the distribution chamber 7, a portion D, which is the inner wall of the bent portion of each intake pipe 8, and a portion E, which is the upper wall of the straight portion of each intake pipe 8, all as shown in FIG. 4.
- the thickness of the portion A is gradually decreased from flange 9 toward the rear end from 5 mm to 4 mm and the wall thickness of the portion B continues to decrease from 4 mm to 3 mm.
- the thickness of the portion C is constant at 3 mm and the thickness of the portion E is gradually decreased toward the rear end portion from 5 mm to 4.5 mm.
- the thickness of the walls of the distribution chamber portion 7 thin, the weight of the manifold body is reduced and the distance is shortened between the center of gravity and the flanges 9 of the intake pipes 8 which support the manifold from the engine, and thus the moment of inertia of the manifold body in relation to the flange ends of the intake pipes is reduced, whereby the vibration of the distribution chamber 7 is minimized and its resistance to vibration is improved.
- the air from the distribution chamber 7 is supplied from the open end of each intake pipe 8 which has an oval cross section 8b with its major axis disposed in the lateral direction of the engine to the intake port 2a having an oval configuration with the major axis in the longitudinal direction corresponding to the open end 8a of each intake pipe 8 and is introduced to the two intake valves 3 of each cylinder 2 through the branching passages which connect to the intake port 2a. Since there is no rapid change in the cross section of the intake passage leading from the distribution chamber 7 to the two intake valves 3, charging efficiency is improved.
- each intake pipe 8 is formed with an oval configuration with its major axis disposed in the lateral direction relative to the distribution chamber 7, the pitch between each intake pipe with respect to the distribution chamber 7 is reduced and thus the length of the chamber 7 can be shortened even though the cross-sectional area of each intake pipe 8 is gradually increased from the forward end to the rear end, as described above, such that the length of the chamber including the throttle body 10 is within the length of the engine 1.
- each intake pipe 8 in the configuration of an air funnel, the length of the chamber 7 is minimized.
- the air funnel is formed such that its rear end portion 8b is bent into an L-shape and the length of the major axis of the oval configuration of the rear end portion 8b is gradually increased in the direction of the inner curve of the bent portion whereby the chamber 7 is displaced toward the inner curve of the bent portion, namely in the direction toward the engine 1, and the overhanging length of the manifold 5 in relation to the engine 1 is shortened, whereby the vibration, which is a great problem in the high rotational range, is reduced.
- each intake pipe is formed in the configuration of an air funnel without increasing the length of the distribution chamber, and the overhanging length of the intake manifold in relation to the engines is reduced, which brings about such advantages as heightened output in the high-rotation range and reduced vibration of the manifold which is apt to be caused in the high-rotation range. Still further, by progressively reducing the wall thickness of the manifold as the distance from the engine increases, the weight and moment of inertia are reduced to further reduce vibration problems.
